Unfortunately pdessena, there is not a finished home blog comparable to the finished kitchen blog. It has been discussed, but no one has stepped forward to manage such an endeavor.

Pdessena- there is no finished home blog but if you are looking for the photos go to houzz. they have over 10,000 photos of finished homes submitted by architects, designers and users around the world. (You can narrow it down by style and specific space that you are looking for).
I use it a lot when i'm looking for inspiration as we are currently remodeling our house.
Here is the link:

Thank you so much -- I am looking for photos so I will check out houzz.

Have you gone over to the Interior Decorating forum? On the gallery side there are hundreds of photo's of specific rooms you can check out.

Have you chosen your paint colors yet? There are also threads on specific colors of paint with real life photo's of rooms.

Let us know if there is anything specific you are looking for.

Good luck.

Thanks Brutuses -- I will check that forum!

I have just launched a blog that I hope will eventually accomplish this sort of thing. My original vision was to have the blog be a source of inspiration for those looking to build. Right now, I don't have much, but I'm plugging away. If anyone would like to contribute, I'd love to have the help.

I'd most definitely love to have some volunteers to participate in the showcase home section. There have been some beautiful builds here over the years, and I'd love to be able to catalog them. I am also contacting builders from across the country and asking for their participation in showing off their homes.

If anyone would like to "show off" their finished build, please contact me through the site.
